What Comicbook/Character Got You Hooked To Comics?

I was in 6th grade back then. I remember a classmate of mine, King, who brought some of his old X-Men Classic comic books to school (X-Men Classic ish #66 & #67). I had no idea then what it was all about. I just thought it would be an interesting read so I borrowed some. Kids back home then weren't exposed to a lot of comic books because they were always expensive in pesos. But once I read a couple of those which my friend brought, I immediately asked him where he got it. It was the brood story arc- right after the dark phoenix saga (where Kitty was still the new kid on the block!).One weekend I asked him to take me to this comic book shop. Turned out it wasn't really a comic book shop but a boutique, where they sell clothes, bags, etc. But one wall was plastered with various comic books neatly arranged and sealed for sale.  And it was expensive! After that first visit, I started following up the X-Men (in the classic series). And though it ate up most of my allowance since then, I was hooked like Lockheed to Kitty.  
 

Believe it or not it was Dragonball Z which got me into Mangas and then I watched Teen Titans and then red the beginning of Volume 3. So Geoff Johns got me into comics.

I was more and anime & Manga guy until I buyed Avengers/Jla (The one with Krona) even more I buyed the 3 issue so I buyed the others and since then I buy nonstop... 
 
But the character that finally sucked me in was Ultimate Spider-man...

I started with some old ASM comics with Venom, having found them at a comic shop I was working at. Then I started getting current comics, Marvel only, and well... .here I am.

comics. I actually read manga before comics. Naruto got me into manga, Then a friend of mine told me to read Watchmen and i did. I loved it. From there i read v for vendetta and sandman. It got me into a lot of other comics. Now im really into comics.

Young Justice. I was about the same age of thos e characters and superboy, kid flash, wonder girl, and robin were characters i could look up, instead of the older guys in the JLA.

I've always been a fan of the X-Men, Spider-Man, and Batman shows but I started reading Moon Knight for some reason outta the blue, and now I'm hooked on comics!

Thor, issue #1 - Rebirth.

I've no shame to say it : 
 
It was Wolverine, the Chris Claremont and Frank Miller classic !

I was hooked after after seeing the first Iron Man movie ob blu-ray my cousin got. Yes im sort of a newbit.

Batman

This Gal:
 

That one spider person...

Nightwing
 
I watched the old Timm verse and the teen titans show as a kid, for some reason I had never seen NW on the BTAS but saw him on Teen Titans, the idea that Robin had become his own hero sounded way too cool for a kids TV show so I had to check if that was taken from comics. The story of Dick Grayson was so cool, I had to check the original material. My first comic was the first issue of Bruce Jones' run, I hated it and the character still was compelling enough for me to want to read

X-Men TAS, Batman TAS and Spider Man TAS helped make the jump. What comics I first read was Dracula and Spider Man, A part of Maximum Carnage, Death of Superman and several X-Men comics as well as the Bat Broken saga in Batman. Spider Man, Rogue and Batman got me into it.

Hulk, I saw the old TV series in 2002, and I got hooked.

Dick Grayson - I have an older brother and every time we would play he was Batman ans I was Robin that included toys. After that I started loving the character

Spider-man was my first Character, and first comic, wow, thats a good question.  
 

" Batman "

Wonder Woman, because I really liked her on that Jusice League show, but she didn't have her own cartoon and I wanted to see more of the character.

 
All the other super heroes I liked (Hulk, Spider Man, Superman, Batman, X-men) had shows I used to watch and live action movies, so I didn't really feel as compelled to shell out extra money to see more of them in comics.  
 
Though techniclly the first comics I ever baught were Alien Vs. Predator, and I had read some old-school Spider-Man comics a friend let me borrow before that.

This was my first issue I bought on my own.   
    
 
And this is the first complete series I owned, have been collecting and enjoying ever since :)

Hmmm...I think it was either a Marvel character,or my dad's co-created series...
 
Not too sure about which one got me hooked first.

X-men : Animated series. I watched that and was instantly hooked.

Batman, the main reason is in part due to the 1990's animated series

Wolverine

first character i know of that pulled me in was Dr.Doom because of his Secret wars toy.
i think i started reading comics on a regular basis though for Transformers, GIJOE and He-Man
and fell farther into superhero ones from there.

A mixture of these three, and they're still my absolute favourites:

Captain America and Wolverine. 
 
This was the first comic I ever picked up.

" @Dane: A Captain America comic was one of my first comics too, there's really something special about him to a first-time reader. "

Can't really contribute it to one character alone...Superman, Spider-Man, and The X-men were the big ones. 
It started with cartoons though, not books...prob cuz I was too young to read.  
My mom bought me some form of this vhs. Pretty sure that is what started it all. 
   
Oh and this: 
    
Honestly can't remember which one I had first though... 
 
And then segued into trading cards: I had just about every set of Marvel trading crads made in the 90's 
The image of this Marvel Masterpiece card used to haunt my nightmares 
    
 
And this one...well this was the stuff of other dreams entirely for an 8 year old boy lol.
